The young phoenix displayed a wise look in her mysterious eyes. She had already seen through everything, and now that she had an opportunity to be alone with Feng Qing’an, she was determined to give it a try.
“I’ve never seen Donghuan use powers like this before, but ever since she met you, she’s been able to use it. So, this power was lent by you, right?”
“Mountains as fingers? That’s impressive!”
Upon hearing the young phoenix’s description, Feng Qing’an too showed surprise in his eyes. He had not seen this scene and was quite shocked at this moment.
“You didn’t know?”
Confusion appeared in the young phoenix’s eyes.
“I can’t achieve that level!”
Feng Qing’an replied.
He now understood that as one’s body’s characteristics and level increase, it becomes more apparent. With his current strength, he could only manifest a meager and insignificant part of it.
“It’s really from you!”
Youyou felt both triumphant and excited upon hearing Feng Qing’an admit it.
She felt the joy of discovering a secret.
“Youyou, I didn’t expect you to be so clever! Very impressive!”
Feng Qing’an let out an impressed comment. Isn’t it just like coaxing a child? It wasn’t something he hadn’t done before.
“Of course, you should see who I am!”
The young phoenix raises her head proudly, the feathers on her tail fluttering as if they were being blown by the wind.
‘Quick, let me try!”
“Try what?”
Feng Qing’an pretended to be puzzled.
“The Great Earth Phoenix. Let me try it!”
Seeing Feng Qing’an playing dumb, Youyou hopped around irritably on his shoulder.
“Isn’t this nonsense? You, a divine bird that flies in the sky, what do you have to do with the earth? You are not a ground chicken, are you?” Feng Qing’an naturally refused.
“If you lend me that power, then there will be a connection, right?”
As she spoke, Youyou even flew down from Feng Qing’an’s shoulder and landed on his desk. Under the watchful eyes of the little fire bird and the young boy, she raised her tail high, her slender phoenix claws gently pressed down as she strutted slowly on the desk.
The innately noble and gorgeous phoenix managed to look silly. This goofy posture made Feng Qing’an hold in his laughter, but it also looked familiar.
“What are you doing?”
“Do I not look like the ground chicken you raised?”
The little one was utterly shameless – in order to get God Kun’s blessing, she was bottomless.
‘Youyou, you, a fine phoenix, are learning to walk like a chicken. This has completely lost the face of the Phoenix Clan! If your parents see this, wouldn’t they die of anger?”
Feng Qing’an couldn’t help but remark.
“I’m a phoenix nurtured from the heavens and the earth, I don’t have parents!”
Youyou stuck her chest out and lifted her head, full of pride and self-satisfaction. Then, in a confident tone, spoke,
“What does the face of the Phoenix Clan have to do with me? They did not raise me or feed me a single meal! Who cares about them, I just want power!”
“Makes sense!”
This pragmatic attitude made Feng Qing’an nod. He thought that this little phoenix must have gone through some tragic times. Otherwise, she would not have abandoned her pride as a phoenix.
“Sensible, right? Hurry up and give me the power of the earth to try, just once!”
The young phoenix flapped her wings and landed on Feng Qing’an’s shoulder. Her little head nudged against Feng Qing’an’s chin, just like a child trying to be cute and playful, pulling out all the stops.
“Youyou, it’s not that I don’t want to lend you the power. It’s that I can’t. There is no established connection between us, do you understand?”
Feng Qing’an too had to get serious and explain properly. This shameless little phoenix was simply unstoppable.
“Do I need to make a soul contract? Alright then, let’s make one now!”
Little Phoenix Youyou was indeed intelligent, having observed everything from the side, she had a clear understanding of the dilemma. Without waiting for Feng Qing’an’s request, she voluntarily spoke up.
“I can’t sign it!”
Feng Qing’an still shook his head at this point.
“Why? You can sign with Dong Huang, why can’t you sign the Soul Contract with me?”
“Do you look down on me? Do you think I’m inferior to that chicken you’re raising?
“What are you thinking about? The reason I won’t sign a Soul Contract with you is that you’re too strong.”
“It’s the same reason again, last time I proposed to lend you power, you said I was too strong. This time when I ask for power from you, you say I’m too strong again. Is everything my fault?”
Tears fell from Little Phoenix’s eyes, freezing and piercingly cold, falling on Feng Qing’an’s neck; it was so cold it made him shudder. Fortunately, the power of the sun tree within him surged to cancel the coldness.
“It’s not your fault; it’s mine. I’m too weak to match you for now!” Feng Qing’an consoled Little Phoenix.
“Then why can Dong Huang?” Youyou was still not convinced.
“She can perfectly control her own power. But even so, she brings me a great burden and pressure. If I were to contract with you as well, I would be crushed by you all!”
Feng Qing’an rubbed his forehead with a slightly headache. Unconsciously, he had become so attractive that Phoenix would take the initiative to contract with him,
You have to say that the little one has exceptional discernment.
“Excuse!” The little Phoenix still felt discontented, and indignantly yelled at Feng Qing’an.
“It’s not an excuse, it’s the truth. How about this? I promise you that as soon as I become powerful enough, the first thing I’ll do is contract with you, and lend you the power of earth! ”
Feng Qing’an had no choice but to appease her with a promise, more like drawing a pie in the sky for her, a pie that was attainable, of course.
Who told him he had no way to handle this kid now? But there was no way he could bear the burden of two high-ranking Monarchs at the moment. Eastern
Phoenix was strong enough to perfectly control her power, otherwise, the third Soul Contract would have broken a long time ago.
“It’s you who said this. Don’t deceive me!”
“Of course, a gentleman’s word is not to be taken back, even by a swift horse!” Feng Qing’an assured the Little Phoenix without a tinge of embarrassment. “What’s so special about a steed, your words, not even ten dragons can catch
“Yes, my words, not even ten dragons can catch up!”
The young man followed Little Phoenix’s words, not caring about his own speech.
“Then I’ll remember. When you’re able, you come to find me, or I can go to find you too!”
Upon hearing Feng Qing’an say this, Youyou believed him and then turned her attention to Big Gugu.
“You guys go and play!”
A big and a small bird flapped their wings and flew away, while Feng Qing’an lowered his head to look at the sash in his hand. He picked it up, felt its silky unique texture, and broke into a smile.
“Oh, Eastern Phoenix!”
Unfortunately, even though Feng Qing’an missed her, she, the ruler of You Huang Ghost Country, couldn’t come for a short period, and could only occasionally communicate through the Soul Contract. As the ruler, Eastern Phoenix didn’t have much free time.
Feng Qing’an had his own things to do. Both the giant skeleton and the sun tree required a lot of his Soul Power to nurture.
As winter turned to spring, the 29th year of Yongkang ended and a new year began. This year, Feng Qing’an turned twelve, going into his thirteenth year, and in nominal age, he was fourteen. His home was becoming increasinglv
lonely.
During the New Year, his elder brother only sent back a few letters. From these letters, Feng Qing’an learned that his brother was going to be dispatched to the local area, which was why he was especially busy. Feng Qing’an was not sure what he was busy with because it was not mentioned in the letters.
As for his parents, although Feng Qing’an did not pay much attention, he knew that their businesses in the county town were growing bigger and bigger. They were involved in many industries such as restaurants, bookstores, and tea houses. Therefore, they came home less and less frequently.
Feng Qing’an didn’t really care about this; after all, he had someone with him every night. However, there were some changes nearby that he had to care about, as it was now hard for him to ignore certain things.
A Bodhi Monastery, which was so large it was almost ridiculous but supposedly very effective, had been built near the village.
In the county town, a wandering Taoist Priest who claimed to foresee every reincarnation had also arrived. It was said that every divination he made was accurate; he never got it wrong..
